Everyday look for a miracle…just open our eyes and see.

Hola,

Another week of my life in Centro. It’s been a good week, not much to complain about. Still crushing the Spanish, because that’s all I speak, I can’t even pray very well in Ingles anymore. I continue to study my verbs and such everyday. I study the words I needed yesterday, so I can have them for the next day. It’s crazy when you learn a word; you hear it everywhere after that. Was it there before? I don’t know. It’s like that untill you learn a new one, it’s kind of like a cycle you could say, and then you start to use it and all the tenses too.

We’ve had some decent weather lately…who am I kidding? It’s been the same blustering sun. At least today it’s raining and I guess you could say the weather is cool.

Everyday I try to look for a miracle. Hermano Jensen, in the MTC, told me to look for a miracle everyday, they are there so look. Somedays it’s a little harder, I end up saying the miracle is having a companion who loves me, a bed, and a fan. Oh how that fan is a miracle! It keeps me from killing myself! Such an ingenius invention. But then other days, the miracles are punching me in the face — we find a new family, our investigadores come to church, we give a LDM (Book of Momron) to someone. I have a certainty that they are there, in all of our life, we just need to open our eyes and see.

Somedays it’s tough to be motivated and ready to go labor in the vineyard. But I don’t have time to feel down, I only have months. But good thing that serving Christ is a life-long calling. Maybe not in this capacity. I’m just thankful for this calling that I have.

We found a new Apartmento, about four blocks from the church. We are so excited to move into it and we’ll probably move on Friday or so. We are going to be way closer to our are of labor, since we had the great idea of working a 1 1/2 hour walk away from our pention now. One part of our area is on the other side of the world and we work there two days out of the week. It’s an area that the other missionaries haven’t touched because it is so far away — but guess who gets to touch it? …me. Lucky? Yes, because its a virgin area.

Well that’s my life thus far, I try to remember all I can for you, so you can enter my life for a moment.

Keep praying for me, for I pray for you.

Les Amo
